Abstract (en)
A device (40) for aligning tip shrouds (42) includes a platform (44) configured to connect to a blade (12), a first projection that extends circumferentially across at least a portion of the platform (44), and a first complementary alignment feature on the first projection (46). A method for aligning tip shrouds (42) includes rotating a plurality of tip shrouds (42), wherein each tip shroud (42) is coupled to a blade (12), and aligning adjacent tip shrouds (42) by nesting a first alignment feature (52) of a first tip shroud (42) into a second alignment feature (52) of a second tip shroud (42).
